7 f HE LONDON: JOURNALS. DAILY EX',TRACTS.FR;OIII THE 'MORNING PAPERS, 3, 1826. [TJIE TlstEo.] It= is • quite mortifying to perceive by the 'papers submitted to Parliainent the shameful and incorrigible cupidity with which the. African, slave-trade is not only - carved on, but rapidly extended, under the flags seaeral'inaritime nations, all of which in their offi . cial declarations condemn this hideous traffic, and by their, laws and public orders pretend to abolish it. Whole volumes of documents have been . presented by the Foreign-office to Parliament, embracing the cor respondence of one year only (1825) -Ist, between Mr. .Canning and the British function a ries under his depan'inent ; and 2d, between the Right Hon. Gen, tlemaThand various foreign Courts. The Spanish slave trade is the subject of 20 official communications, be sidesenelosures ; in. the course of which the Spanish Minister had the confidence to allege, in direct oppo sition to the truth, as it was demonstrated, that the slaVe trade on' behalf of the island of Cuba—the most active and audacious' of any that our cruisers had to cope with, was carried on ".by British capital , and f or the benefit of British subjects. r ! However, the regulations of the Spanish Government, whether good or bad, upon the subject, can be regarded as oflittle more value than a dead kttei, With :Brazil there are 33 official communica tions ; with the Netherlands 11, but leading to satis factory results. The' correspondence with France amounts to .52 communications, exclusive of enclo sures ;: and we cannot refrain from saying, that there is exhibited, throughout the whole proceedings of the French Government, a degree of hypocrisy, or of im becility, the most wonderful that ever we were made acquainted with—so daring is the violation of all the laws, and rules, and instructions, emanating from the legislature and the extensive power of that kingdom for the prevention of the slave trade, and so con- Pint and careless the diligence with which the beastly trade has every year been carried on. In fact, from the utter helplessness of the British Government with re gard' to irance in all its efforts to divert the latter wet 'from- dlr.: slave trade, an air of melancholy hum hi* is thrown over the whole of Mr. Ginning's and Lord Grenville'S remonstrances' to the Most Christian [nonNI,NG CHRONICLE.] Our readers will see from our Parliamentary Re port, what ,the feelings of the Landowners arc with' respect to the two Ineasures respecting:Bonded and Foreign Corn, proposed by Ministers. All distinc tions in this country in the present day way be said to be insignificant Coropared with the two, of the owners of the soil and. the rest of the community. Land owner may differ'from landowner in secondary matter, but in all that regards' the , power and wealth of the order, they are united. The Landowners, directly or indirectly, tire the real sovereigns of the country, but 17 one of those fictions Which abound so much in Lngland, the fbrms`of freedom are made available to the es.areiae of their ,poWer ; that is--a-majority appear to be persuaded to this or that measure by a Committee of their own order,. in the character of Ministers the ,Crown, : which : Committee must necessarily take its movements from the body which it appears to lead. As, 'however,: the real power in all coun tie§ intuit necessarilybe 'PosaOsefl by the people, and the peppleof England. ,possess no small share of wealth, industry,. energy, and intelligence, our sove reign Landowners are, nu doubt, indirectly eontrouled by the, opinion of the people, which, by the free forms of the country can he made to reach them. The Cprn Law, having for object the direct,revenue . 7of the sovereigns, is one of those subjects which has Served, more Chian, airy other, to ,mark distinctly the divisions above alluded to.. The men who happen to be Mini sters at the present moment, conceiving that the: Corn Laws are deeply injurious to the trade and industry of the country, and only ,apparently benefiCial to the Landowners, have presumed so . far on that conviction, as to endeavour to obtain from, that body a modifica tionOtthese 'Laws, Aware of their imbecility, as mere' Ministers; they endeavoured to carry their point indirectly, by , leading the Landowners to enter on., a course of, legislation with , respect to all the other classea,, whieh, without the most etring departure frOm every thing like ' consistency, could only terminate in all alteration• of the Cern Laws. Mini!l cr ,s, however, appeou, calculated too much On the respect for public opinion of the Land owners. The ,principles of . free trade were applauded sti lOtig aa they were ,merely applied to the .other closea hitt ,when it, became oeCesery to complete the new regialation by. applying , it', to the trade in corn, Ministers were f;o00 trade seusible of their utter' hel lessnesa wi n :0 tins in eontretiety to the wishes Of the .L4ndoWners. They, have even been taunted by'those to !Men)) they must yield obedience with the'folly of their announeing aaii intention of Proposing an altera tion in the Corn Laws before they hint fully made up their minda, both 'as to the time when, and the man ner in which that alteration wit to be efreeted. Their minds made up! There were other minds to be made up of more importance, and on these minds they counted.; but we array- apply the , common saying to' them ; he that counts without his host counts twice.— 'They were bafiled,-- 7 -the soundings were unfavourable, —ancl Mr. IloBkisson, who wished by big words and long, round-about expressions„ which were every thing hi intelligible, to conceal his mortification, was obliged to Make another promise to the disappointed people: Sp complete is. the separation. between the Leo Owners and the People on . this all-important Tilstion;.that an. Orangeman, who turns Papist, is not tiewedasith more hostility, by hid , . old associates, than t4O '.'Landowner, who, either from a More enlightened view 'of his interest, or samples of conscience, differs totishis Order, is 'viewed by that Order. We have heatd .circumstanees stated which we dare not repeat. We do not believe this country was ever in a more , cray4i fiturkt i on than that, in which she is ,placed at tlt 'present moment,' Distress, which prevails univer fidly, bas, in the most flourishin, cr and industriousof Cauri . provinces, attaitteda heiglit.which almost threatens the destruction of social order. A National Bank tuptey has been hinted at as. possibly neeessaty, n ot by s k i n ) yenthful. enthusiast.,. but by Veteran. States. I ngt,,nt i the bnid of one of the great political o parties I , thos-coantry. "It is a sound maxim Earl Grey) nrmo ten e t ur ad impossible ; and i f t h e 6 0 verumeut be idaotsi in a situation in idilch it is imp-as:4l)le tO country in a state of decent p ro spgrity,.it is out r equired to and to throw w h o l e s tate of soviety into confusion, by attinupting them." 1;,,0r our part, wo conceive the ,bare attempt to touvli the tiatiopal creditors, would' alone throw., so oiety into the utmost confusion ;,-for .if there he deficiency, it must . not be thrown exclusively on one class,' but must. be shared' by all ; and. every estate, real andpersonal; throughout • the country, must be made available pro rata to the extinction of the bur den ; a creditor, for instance, to the extent of 100,0004 Ruffering no grater a deduction from the value of his property than the amount of a Landholder; with an estate worth 100,0001. must contribute from that: estate. But this, by the bye—we merely allude to the circumstance as illustrative of the peculiar diffi culties of the crisis, when a Statesman like Earl Grey could even allude to the not keeping faith with the public creditor. And at this moment, when con fidence has received such a shock, what are our exter nal relations ? In India our difficulties are increasing every day. We believe that four times the number of British troops now in that country is wanted. Our situation is truly critical. We dare not trust the native regiments by themselves. The arms are regularlytaken from the native regiments every night, lest an attempt should be made on the British ere morning. This state of -things may well inspire alarm. We say nothing of the heavy expenditure which will be en tailed on us, be the end of the operations what it may. But would that India were the only quarter in which we were apprehensive .of danger !—A war, between Russia and the. Porte, within one month, is consi dered inevitable in quarters possessed ()Nile best po litical information. We stated long ago the extreme probability of this termination of the negotiations. Turkey, we learn, has made the most urgent_ ap peals to this country for support, and Ministers, we believe, are inclined to afford it. France, we un derstand, is manccuvering ; but Austria has already an army in preparation on the frontiers, in fighting order, and is closely united with us. In a very few days the definitive reply from Turkey will have arrived, but it is generally believed that there is not the smallest chance of the continuance of peace. Internal convulsions, and colonial and foreign war, at a moment when, for the sake of existing in decent prosperity, we are threatened with a National Bankruptcy ! The situation of a Minister of this country, at the present moment, is not surely an enviable one !—(ibid.) LAW INTELLIGENCE. HOUSE OF LORDS, MAY 2. ILEY.. BRICE FLETCHER V. LORD ,SONDES. This case, which was a writ of error from the Courts of King's Bench and Exchequer Chamber, returnable to the House of Lords, was fully heard last'Session, 'and referred - to the Twelve Judges with their opinions, all of whom, with the exception of the three Puisne Judges of the Court of King's Bench, delivered their opi nions to-day, and yetterday. The facts were shortly theee :--Lord Sondes was a patron of a living in the county of Northampton, to which he presented Mr. Fletcher, who was resign it on .the Hon. Henry Watson, one of his Loniship'e brothers, ,who, at the time of the presentation was a minor, becoming capable of accept ing it, under a penalty of 10,0001. This was the condition upon which begot the living, and he entered into a bonduf resignation fur the above sum ; but •when the Hon. H. Watson• became capa ble of accepting the pitiug,. Mr.• Fletcher refused to,resign it, and Lord Sondes sued upon the bond for the recovery of the penalty. It was contended that the bond was shnoniacal and therefore void, but ,the Courts of King's Bench and Exchequer Chamber held it to be goof!. This decision was appealed against, and the question wieldier this bond was simoniacal was referred to the opinion of the .Twelve Judgtai. , • Six : Judges , yesterday delivered their opinions. Mr. Justice Gasek'e and Mr. Justice Burrough were of opinion that the bond was good. 111esiors. Justice Park, Garrow, Graham, and lock, 'Were of opinion that it was null and void. The Chief Baron and Chief Justice of the King's Bench delis *ered similar opinions to-day. The Chief Justice of the Common • Pleas delivered his opi nion strongly, and at length, in favour of the validity of the• bond. His Lordship did not think such bonds against the Sta- • tute Law, Common Law, or ,public , policy ;, uvr r did, be see any reason for disturbing a principle which hwl been acted upon tar two hundred years. If their Lordships should now decide that general bonds of resignation were illegal, so many of. those who were now the brightest ornements of the Church...- the: eons of the Nobility, and Gentry, the present patrons—would be debarred from entering that profession. If ,a patron saw that he could not secure a living to his son, though he only wanted a few months of becoming capable to accept it, he won!! he com pelled either to select an old man to tin it, who would be incompe tent to discharge its duties, or to dispose of it, and let it go into other hands. In either case evils would arise, and he was sure it would net be to, the benefit of the Church that its patronage should go into other hands, than those which now possessed it.— This proved the law as. had, been hitherto expounded, to be more consistent • with public policy. On these grounds prin eipally his .Lordship was of opinion that the bond was legal and valid. Tho Lord Chancellor and Lord Gifford aro yet to deliver their opinions. The day appointed it Thuraday week. The case has excited considerable interthit in Westruinstcr-Hall. The place below the bur was chiefly filludwith barriovs. COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY S. CRIMINAL INFORMATION. Mr. BROUGUAM roved for a ride to skew cause, why a crimi nal information should not be filed against Mr. G. W. Lennox Cumiinghani, a junior clerk in the Foreign Office, for conduct towards Mr. -Shemin, another clerk in the same office, tending to provoke the latter to a breach of the-petice. On the 21st Feb., Shenan, in a conversation with Mr. C., reminded him of haying Admitted, on a former occasion, that he , (lllr. C.) had adopted stops fur the purpose of his taking his (Mr. S.'a) place in the , office. Mr. Cunningham became exceedingly angry at this; "If you on that I told you any thing of the kind, it is a--lie." Upon which Mr. Shenan said, Cumiingliami , recollect yourself;": giving him. time to re flect upon the import of the language be had thus used. Mr. Cuithingliam, in continuation, said, " I say it is en infernal lie," and held his cane up in . ti threatening manner. A scuttle ensued, , but MG Slienan did nothing else than disarm Mr. Cenningliton of his cane. It was afterwards asserted by Mr.. Cunningham, that Mr. Shemin had spit at him across the stick. This her. Nberian denied. As soon as the scuffle was over, Mr. Cunuinghamproveeded to make u complaint to the Under ae. cretary of State, and by him the matter was represented to the prineipal Secretary of State, who ordered that both parties should be taken before the Magistrates at Bow-street, and thither they were carried, and there an examination took place ; the-reeult of which was, that they were taken to the Office of the Secretary of State for the Home Department, where they were bound over to appear ut the ensuing. Sessions, and in the mean time to keep the peace. In less than two hours after ' this - latter proccisling, Mr. Cunningham sent a message to M - r•.Shenan by another elerk, , demanding satisfaction; and pro posing an immediate meeting.. This was instantly declined by Mr. Shenan, on the ground that Mr. Cunningliem himself had just caused him to be hound over to keep the peace. In the course of the sante Mr. Shenan received three other Ines sages, to the same died, which were declined. On the 25th February the same clerk brought .a written 'message from' Mr.' Cunningham to Mr. Shenan, to the following effect : " Lh consequence of the evasive wormer in width you have met, my repeated messages, requiring you to give eatisfuetion for thr gross insult you offered me,. I have already' stetted; One:Melly, r consider you a scandal and a disgrace•to the character of a gen tleman.. I have now, therefore, 'only to designate you as a coward." , _ _ .
